	♥ 7:06pm Gulf Coast Fox: Ok, we are all slowly coming in. The gang is just a bit bruised up because I started a brawl over Peter Brötzmann in the Ritual music chat.
	♥ 7:07pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @7:06 I saw that! That's part of the ritual. Grerat show, DJ Palindrome!
	♥ 7:08pm Gulf Coast Fox: It got so bad I had to change my profile pic to one I took recently with Joe McPhee at a concert I worked...just to prove I love free jazz. Today's Laughing Clock sounds right up my alley. Thx friend... looking forward.
	♥ 7:14pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @7:08 The paradox of "free jazz orthodoxy"...
	🕰 ♥ 7:15pm WR: Hi, here listening.
	♥ 7:16pm DJ Peter: I sensed your presence, WR. There was a disturbance in the Force.
	♥ 7:16pm Gulf Coast Fox: ↳ Song: "1" by "Amirtha Kidambi" llllllllloooooooovvvvve this.
	♥ 7:17pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @7:16 "my curse is feminine and it dwells in my body"
	♥ 7:19pm Gulf Coast Fox: ↳ DJ Peter @7:16 These aren't the record collectors you're looking for.. 👋
	♥ 7:20pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @7:19 lol
	♥ 7:23pm DJ Peter: I forget to mention: after the Manet/Degas set we'll celebrate the birthday of Nesuhi Ertegun (Atlantic Records supervising producer)
	♥ 7:27pm Gulf Coast Fox: ↳ DJ Peter @7:20 I recently impressed the socks off an 8-year old boy with my deep knowledge of Star Wars, LOTR, the entire MCU...but especially Spider-Man. I think he wanted to marry me. I told him when he was 16 we could talk Song of Ice and Fire...
	♥ 7:32pm Gulf Coast Fox: obligato... one of my ALL-time fave words.
	🕰 ♥ 7:33pm WR: ↳ DJ Peter @7:06 wet vac / shop vac generally give amazing value for $$ sprent.
	♥ 7:35pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @7:33 Really you just need it to work once. When you need it you need it.
	🕰 ♥ 7:35pm WR: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @7:08 Is McPhee so short or are you so tall?
	♥ 7:35pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @7:27 Tell him to get in line, GCF!
	7:38pm `Dean: Dead I was once, but Ded. My stupid pseudonym for Flipside was Dean Ded.
	♥ 7:39pm DJ Peter: ↳ `Dean @7:38 yeh, sorry about that Dean! Auto-correct thinks its ontological-correct.
	7:40pm `Dean: Auto-correct is dead to me!
	7:40pm Dean: That apostrophe scares me...
	♥ 7:43pm Gulf Coast Fox: ↳ WR @7:35 Ok, funny. I updated my profile image to an uncropped image of me (standing) and Joe (seated). With our legs cropped out that (now deleted) image was giving--Glinda the Good Witch singing, "Come out, come out wherever you are..." Poor Joe, he deserves better. He is a fucking living legend. Hahahahaha... what a day I've had.
	♥ 7:44pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @7:43 And your little dog too!
	♥ 7:45pm Gulf Coast Fox: ↳ Dean @7:40 `Dean is your evil twin...like in soap operas. The apostrophe is your twin's mustache...
	♥ 7:46pm Gulf Coast Fox: I hate to be the one to tell you but, I asked `Dean and he is in agreement with me about Peter Brötzmann.
	7:51pm Dean: I banish thee, apostrophe Dean! Didn't work.
	♥ 7:55pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Backstretch" by "Bobby Previte" I don't know why I think this picture of Previte's band is so great, but I love it. (Hyperlinked from Previte's name in column one.)
	♥ 7:56pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @7:55 Maybe it's Previte's pants. Everyone trying not to look at him.
	7:56pm Dean: I'll tell you why, DJ Peter. It resembles the shot of the Stones on the Sticky Fingers insert.
	7:59pm Dean: Degas' mother was from New Orleans?! I am confused.
	♥ 7:59pm Gulf Coast Fox: ↳ Dean @7:51 `Dean is safe and sound with me. And he wants me to tell that he only likes model spiritual jazz now.
	♥ 7:59pm DJ Peter: OMG. Wyman's hair! Richards's strut! LOL!
	🕰 ♥ 8:00pm coelacanth∅: good evening Peter & all
	♥ 8:00pm DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @7:59 Edgar was born in Paris. His mother was Creole from New Orleans!
	♥ 8:01pm DJ Peter: Hey coelacanthø! A fine evening it is!
	♥ 8:02pm Gulf Coast Fox: ohhhh this reminds me... Peter, How was X at the Metropolitan Opera?!?!?! I am still so sad not to have been there. Did Jeff go too? Did you get all dolled up? I have so many questions! I want you and your wife at the Anthony Davis opera as your profile pic. I demand it. ;)
	8:03pm Dean: I did not know that. Makes me feel even closer to Degas, Manet, all those dead guys. Earlier today Stork played tracks from a post-mortem Lenny Breau collection. The cover is a Renolr painting.
	♥ 8:04pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @8:02 Yes, we say Jeff and his better half! My first visit to the Met (the other Met). The sound was great! Some of the staging was phenomenal (Malcolm in prison... interpretive dance...) Some was bizarre (mothership floating over the stage). At its best the staging was really smart... at times it was very static.
	♥ 8:05pm DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @8:03 One of my favorite IG accounts: www.instagram.com...
	♥ 8:07pm Gulf Coast Fox: ↳ Dean @8:03 Those Lenny Breau tacks today were incredible.
	♥ 8:10pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Cherryco" by "John Coltrane & Don Cherry" This painting is by Abidine, not a name I'm familiar with. But I'm guessing that the Ertegun brothers favored him since he was Turkish. (Nesuhi collected surrealist art, I learned recently.)
	8:13pm Dean: Renoir does not suck! However, the "at painting" is a marvelous clarification.
	8:16pm Dean: Nobody wants to engage my assertion that Paul McCartney ripped off Yes.
	♥ 8:24pm DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @8:13 It's all in the details.
	♥ 8:33pm Gulf Coast Fox: ↳ DJ Peter @8:24 As the artist John Chamberlain once said, "It's all in the fit..." All of our ears hear and resonate sonically in different ways. It makes this whole silly thing so infinitely fascinating to me. There is someone out there...and her favorite song of all time is Achy Breaky Heart. And I fucking love her for that. Even it is not for me...that human is engaging in an artform we all care deeply for--music. I don't feel it is always appropriate to use qualifiers when referring to music. I am guilty of it, for sure. But music is, IS and always should be a subjective sport not an act of mastabatory pugilism. Amen. Ok, stepping off my applebox now.
	8:38pm Dean: Well, there are objective aspects of even art. We might as well get a kick out of those, too. The notion of "favorites" has very little to do with art.
	♥ 8:39pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @8:33 I agree with the sentiment, for sure! But for the sake of argument: Can taste really be subjective? Yes, my experiences are different from yours, I inherited some of my mother's sensibility. But my taste is also shaped by my sense of how my taste speaks to others (what it says about me). I certainly agree that pugilistic enforcement of taste is misinformed (why should I fight to tell you that your taste differs from mine).
	♥ 8:40pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @8:39 And I'm aware that you feel somewhat bruised today! :-) As the DJ who gets to promote my own taste, maybe I become a target for listeners seeking to establish their own tastes!
	♥ 8:42pm Gulf Coast Fox: I feel like it is important for me to say-without judgement-that I like artists Lisa Frank and Nancy Holt equally... the way I love musicians Beyonce and Ornette Coleman equally. Liking one does not negate my ability to understand that, of course, one has more academic rigor. But I still like them just the same.
	8:42pm bigplanetnoise: Hey, DJ Pete - loving the show!
	♥ 8:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @8:42 Hi BPN! Glad you tuned in!
	♥ 8:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @8:42 100%!!!
	8:44pm Dean: But taste is tangential to the appreciation of art. I've been reading Helen Vendler on Wallace Stevens. Now, her taste might lean toward or away from Stevens, but that doesn't matter if my interest is in her observations. To "like" something--a painting, a song, a play--is one tiny factor when it comes to assessing, thinking deeply, appreciating that painting, song, play.
	8:45pm Dean: I don't love any artists equally. That's the point.
	🕰 ♥ 8:47pm WR: Dang, already arrived to the last set. Thank you, DJ Peter.
	♥ 8:50pm Gulf Coast Fox: Ducking out a little early. Nite, nite...Dean and Apostrophe Dean: I sure had fun with you today. I'm all riled up in the BEST way. Let's do it all again next Sunday or on Wednesday at Ridgewood...!! :0
	♥ 8:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @8:50 Good night Galveston! See you soon.
	♥ 8:52pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @8:47 We got some more music, not done yet! Thanks for being here, WR! And for supporting the Clock! Means the world to me!
	8:52pm Dean: Hey, Gulf Coast, my job is official riler upper. See you soon!
	♥ 8:53pm Gulf Coast Fox: Ohhh and I'm not bruised. Never fear. I love this shit. Once someone called the cops because a (male) friend and I were yelling so loud about free vs model jazz that they thought is was a domestic. I looooove throwing down.
	8:53pm Dean: Cops sure can be stupid, can't they?
	♥ 8:54pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Satellite" by "John Coltrane" Hey everybody! I found a Coltrane track that hasn't been played on WFMU!
	♥ 8:54pm Gulf Coast Fox: Peter!!!!! You really quilted the artwork together sonically with your musical selections. As a lyric-biased visual learner, this show resonated with me immensely. Great concept and expertly executed my friend. I will be appropriating this concept in some form, as you did from Gary/Bodega. We all stand on the shoulders of giants. Abrazos!!!!!!
	🕰 ♥ 8:55pm Doug Schulkind: ↳ DJ Peter @8:54 Keep in mind, DJ Peter, that the search engine only goes back to about 1995.
	♥ 8:56pm DJ Peter: ↳ Doug Schulkind @8:55 Still! In 28 years, what are the odds!
	🕰 ♥ 8:56pm WR: ↳ Song: "Satellite" by "John Coltrane" is the track name and the album title reversed.
	8:56pm Dean: Geordie Walker of Killing Joke has died.
	♥ 8:57pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @8:56 yup, will fix!
	🕰 ♥ 8:57pm WR: ↳ WR @8:56 does that change the odds...
	🕰 ♥ 8:58pm WR: Let there be timbales. Thank you!
	🕰 ♥ 8:59pm Doug Schulkind: Thanks for a lovely evening, DJP!
	🕰 ♥ 9:09pm doctorjazz: Busy, busy weekend, got to catch the last half hour on my drive home, which was very cool! (catch the rest in the Archives). Thanks DJ Peter!
	🕰 ♥ 9:13pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Peter!
	🕰 ♥ 10:48am doctorjazz: Cool concept, cool show, just getting to the end. Thanks again, DJ Peter!

The Laughing Clock with DJ Peter: Playlist from November 26, 2023

View DJ Peter's profile

Obscure musical gems, avant experimentation, and classics worth rehearing. A conurbation of Leslie speakers, timbales, plungers, arch-tops, tablas, and squeaky reeds. Black ties, pork pies, Cuban boots, Nudie suits, bobbysocks, turtlenecks, and high-heeled sneakers. Jazz is the north star but it’s a wide universe, so says The Laughing Clock.

Manet/Degas. (Quotations taken from the Metropolitan Museum of Art exhibition website.) Inspired by Bodega Pop's visit to MOMA.
An Enigmatic Relationship. The first gallery begins with two self-portraits and then traces the beginnings of a sometimes stormy friendship.
Anthony Brown's Orchestra	Self Portrait in Three Colors	Rhapsodies	Water Baby		January 2005: Louis Fasman, Henry Hung (tp,flhrn) Wayne Wallace (tb) Dave Martell (tb,tu) Marcia Miget (fl,sop,as,ts) Jim Norton (cl,sop,bassoon,contralto-cl,contrabassoon) Danny Bittker (b-cl,steel-d) Masaru Koga (ts,shakuhachi) Melecio Magdaluyo (bar,as,fl,cajon) Will Bernard (el-g) Mark Izu (b,sheng) Anthony Brown (d,perc,waterphone,cond) Georgia Brown (perc) Hong Wang (sheng,dizi,erhu,suona) Yangqin Zhao (yangqin) Gangqin Zhao (guzheng,yangqin)		0:32:33 (Pop-up)

Challenging Genres at the Salon. "A codified hierarchy of categories, or genres, set expectations about appropriate subjects and relative scale, with monumental history painting considered the pinnacle. Manet’s early Salon submissions boldly transgressed traditional boundaries."
Lush	Olympia "Olympia" by "Lush"	Lovelife	4AD	1996			0:45:04 (Pop-up)
At the Racecourse. "Degas’s compositions capture a distinct moment in the sport: he favored the seconds before the start, the subtle and suspenseful choreography of the mounts champing at the bit. Manet’s scenes, on the other hand, are all gallop, visual explosion, and acceleration."
Bobby Previte	Backstretch "Backstretch" by "Bobby Previte"	Weather Clear, Track Fast	Enja	1991	January 1991: Graham Haynes (cnt) Robin Eubanks (tb) Don Byron (cl,bar) Marty Ehrlich (cl,b-cl,as,fl) Anthony Davis (p) Anthony Cox (b) Bobby Previte (d)		0:50:04 (Pop-up)
From One War to Another. "Manet regularly produced works based on events that touched or outraged him as a citizen, while Degas shied away from current events in his public work. Early in the artists’ relationship, the United States was torn apart by the Civil War (1861–65) and political maneuvers in Mexico led to the execution of Emperor Maximilian (1867), both subjects that Manet depicted.... "The U.S. Civil War directly affected Degas’s family. His mother was from New Orleans, and he had relatives who were enslavers, supported the Confederacy, and continued to make their living from the cotton trade."
Paul Motian	War Orphans "War Orphans" by "Paul Motian"	Tribute	ECM	1975	May 1974: Sam Brown (g,el-g) Paul Metzke (el-g) Charlie Haden (b) Paul Motian (perc)		0:57:23 (Pop-up)
Overlapping Networks. "Ironically, while the artists increasingly tried to liberate themselves from institutional structures and to assert their independence, their worlds intertwined more and more with critics, dealers, and other influential players in the art world and press."
John Coltrane & Don Cherry	Cherryco	The Avant-Garde	Atlantic	1966	6/28/1960: Don Cherry (tp) John Coltrane (sop,ts) Charlie Haden (b) Ed Blackwell (d).		1:04:46 (Pop-up)
Degas After Manet. "Shaken by Manet’s premature death in 1883, Degas reportedly declared at the time of his friend’s funeral, 'He was greater than we thought.'... "Degas’s lasting admiration for Manet is most evident in his personal art collection, which he had at one time envisioned turning into a museum.,,. By 1897 Degas had acquired nearly eighty works by Manet, including eight paintings, over a dozen drawings, and an almost complete set of prints."
Paul McCartney	Tug of War "Tug of War" by "Paul McCartney"	Here Today	MPL	1982	George Martin (album producer, string quartet arrangement).		1:11:29 (Pop-up)

	8:13pm Dean: Renoir does not suck! However, the "at painting" is a marvelous clarification.
	8:16pm Dean: Nobody wants to engage my assertion that Paul McCartney ripped off Yes.
	♥ 8:24pm DJ Peter: ↳ Dean @8:13 It's all in the details.
	♥ 8:33pm Gulf Coast Fox: ↳ DJ Peter @8:24 As the artist John Chamberlain once said, "It's all in the fit..." All of our ears hear and resonate sonically in different ways. It makes this whole silly thing so infinitely fascinating to me. There is someone out there...and her favorite song of all time is Achy Breaky Heart. And I fucking love her for that. Even it is not for me...that human is engaging in an artform we all care deeply for--music. I don't feel it is always appropriate to use qualifiers when referring to music. I am guilty of it, for sure. But music is, IS and always should be a subjective sport not an act of mastabatory pugilism. Amen. Ok, stepping off my applebox now.
	8:38pm Dean: Well, there are objective aspects of even art. We might as well get a kick out of those, too. The notion of "favorites" has very little to do with art.
	♥ 8:39pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @8:33 I agree with the sentiment, for sure! But for the sake of argument: Can taste really be subjective? Yes, my experiences are different from yours, I inherited some of my mother's sensibility. But my taste is also shaped by my sense of how my taste speaks to others (what it says about me). I certainly agree that pugilistic enforcement of taste is misinformed (why should I fight to tell you that your taste differs from mine).
	♥ 8:40pm DJ Peter: ↳ DJ Peter @8:39 And I'm aware that you feel somewhat bruised today! :-) As the DJ who gets to promote my own taste, maybe I become a target for listeners seeking to establish their own tastes!
	♥ 8:42pm Gulf Coast Fox: I feel like it is important for me to say-without judgement-that I like artists Lisa Frank and Nancy Holt equally... the way I love musicians Beyonce and Ornette Coleman equally. Liking one does not negate my ability to understand that, of course, one has more academic rigor. But I still like them just the same.
	8:42pm bigplanetnoise: Hey, DJ Pete - loving the show!
	♥ 8:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @8:42 Hi BPN! Glad you tuned in!
	♥ 8:43pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @8:42 100%!!!
	8:44pm Dean: But taste is tangential to the appreciation of art. I've been reading Helen Vendler on Wallace Stevens. Now, her taste might lean toward or away from Stevens, but that doesn't matter if my interest is in her observations. To "like" something--a painting, a song, a play--is one tiny factor when it comes to assessing, thinking deeply, appreciating that painting, song, play.
	8:45pm Dean: I don't love any artists equally. That's the point.
	🕰 ♥ 8:47pm WR: Dang, already arrived to the last set. Thank you, DJ Peter.
	♥ 8:50pm Gulf Coast Fox: Ducking out a little early. Nite, nite...Dean and Apostrophe Dean: I sure had fun with you today. I'm all riled up in the BEST way. Let's do it all again next Sunday or on Wednesday at Ridgewood...!! :0
	♥ 8:51pm DJ Peter: ↳ Gulf Coast Fox @8:50 Good night Galveston! See you soon.
	♥ 8:52pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @8:47 We got some more music, not done yet! Thanks for being here, WR! And for supporting the Clock! Means the world to me!
	8:52pm Dean: Hey, Gulf Coast, my job is official riler upper. See you soon!
	♥ 8:53pm Gulf Coast Fox: Ohhh and I'm not bruised. Never fear. I love this shit. Once someone called the cops because a (male) friend and I were yelling so loud about free vs model jazz that they thought is was a domestic. I looooove throwing down.
	8:53pm Dean: Cops sure can be stupid, can't they?
	♥ 8:54pm DJ Peter: ↳ Song: "Satellite" by "John Coltrane" Hey everybody! I found a Coltrane track that hasn't been played on WFMU!
	♥ 8:54pm Gulf Coast Fox: Peter!!!!! You really quilted the artwork together sonically with your musical selections. As a lyric-biased visual learner, this show resonated with me immensely. Great concept and expertly executed my friend. I will be appropriating this concept in some form, as you did from Gary/Bodega. We all stand on the shoulders of giants. Abrazos!!!!!!
	🕰 ♥ 8:55pm Doug Schulkind: ↳ DJ Peter @8:54 Keep in mind, DJ Peter, that the search engine only goes back to about 1995.
	♥ 8:56pm DJ Peter: ↳ Doug Schulkind @8:55 Still! In 28 years, what are the odds!
	🕰 ♥ 8:56pm WR: ↳ Song: "Satellite" by "John Coltrane" is the track name and the album title reversed.
	8:56pm Dean: Geordie Walker of Killing Joke has died.
	♥ 8:57pm DJ Peter: ↳ WR @8:56 yup, will fix!
	🕰 ♥ 8:57pm WR: ↳ WR @8:56 does that change the odds...
	🕰 ♥ 8:58pm WR: Let there be timbales. Thank you!
	🕰 ♥ 8:59pm Doug Schulkind: Thanks for a lovely evening, DJP!
	🕰 ♥ 9:09pm doctorjazz: Busy, busy weekend, got to catch the last half hour on my drive home, which was very cool! (catch the rest in the Archives). Thanks DJ Peter!
	🕰 ♥ 9:13pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Peter!
	🕰 ♥ 10:48am doctorjazz: Cool concept, cool show, just getting to the end. Thanks again, DJ Peter!
